The Australian Kelpie is a hardworking and active dog that stands about 50 centimetres high and weighs between 16 and 23 kilograms. Originally descended from Scottish collies, the Australian Kelpie is better suited to the heat and dry conditions found in much of its adopted country. Given its heritage, the kelpie is instinctually eager to work with sheep and other pack animals, and it needs quite a bit of exercise. Clever, fun and loving, the Australian Kelpie makes the perfect companion to a human with similar energy levels and love of adventure. They are also good with families and never tire of playing with gentle children.

Many businesses in Maryland welcome four-legged guests, and there are dog-friendly activities scheduled year-round for the social, energetic doggy of this state. Hit up the beach with your furry family members at Down Park Dog Beach in Pasadena, Quiet Waters Park Dog Beach in Annapolis, or Dog Beach at Matapeake Park in Queen Anne’s County. Since dogs aren’t allowed generally in restaurants or bars in this state, it’s a good idea to stick to pet-friendly neighbourhoods while visiting or spending the day in town. In Baltimore, that includes Mt. Washington, Butcher’s Hill, Charles Village and Locust Point, where residents have access to large yards, dog parks, nature trails and even the odd pet-friendly bar or two.
In 1964 the Chesapeake Bay Retriever was declared the official dog of Maryland.
Most Maryland dog lovers prefer the state dog, as well as Labradors, German Shepherds and Golden Retrievers.
In Baltimore, the American Pit Bull Terrier is the favourite mixed breed!
